South Carolina — Palmetto
Forms, honestly.
TrialVector shows South Carolina law verbatim, teaches the procedure, and routes judgment calls to licensed South Carolina attorneys - it prepares no documents for you in South Carolina today.
This platform prepares no forms in South Carolina
South Carolina has no software safe-harbor statute, and § 40-5-310 places the definition of unauthorized practice with the Supreme Court itself — so this platform ships no document builder in South Carolina. Any future document feature is double-gated behind SC_LIVE and SC_UPL_COUNSEL_CONFIRMED, and the gate is code, not policy. The reasoning lives on the served page and the honesty board.
The judiciary's own self-help lane
The South Carolina Judicial Branch publishes self-represented-litigant resources and court forms on its own site. This platform's posture is ledgered: THE ROUTED DESTINATION for self-represented litigants - the judiciary's own forms; this platform links law, it does not host or fill forms in South Carolina.
What it CAN show you: the statutes and rules a form implements, verbatim, unit by unit — every rule loaded per rule from the court's own pages.
What stands behind a form
- Answering a complaint: the served flow — SERVED within 30 days, with the loaded counting rule linked.
- The smaller room: the $7,500 ceiling and the magistrate rulebook.
- Filing logistics: the e-filing definitions — the Authorized E-Filer is a licensed South Carolina attorney by the policies' own words; self-represented paths run on paper unless a court says otherwise.
